Stampin Up Independent Demonstrator Dawn Howard

CHRISTMAS 2017 My customers have been itching to get started with their Christmas cards so I had fun deigning bridge fold cards using the new Hometown greetings and Bethlehem Edgelits dies.  Here are pictures made by 4 of my Friday evening class attendees. I'll be running this class again for my Monday afternoon ladies. I really like the colour combination that April choose for her card - she used a variety of colours from the regal palette and finished off using some crushed curry embossing powder.

PAPER POSY I was asked by the North Staffordshire Asperger's and Autism Association (NSAAA) to help the children in their craft group make a paper posy that they could present to the Countess of Wessex when she visited them.  I chose several Stampin Up punches and old bigz dies and papers from the subtles range. I demonstrated how to make flowers and then let their imagination and choice of colour run riot. We all had a fantastic time and made a huge pile of flowers. I then took these home and turned them into the post using florists wire and a hot glue gun. Unfortunately I was working elsewhere and so was unable to attend the visit, however I'm pleased to be able to share these photos with you.
